Games and creative innovations on offer:

1. Ned by PeeBee Games

Ned, an action platformer loosely based around the life of Ned Kelly (well, we stole his iconic image), only now, Ned needs to find out what has caused the animals to go crazy, and what’s all that green glowing ooze?

Working Class Weyland is a fast paced platformer, with a comedy twist!

3. Forests of Faerynova by Go Studio

FPS Adventure (Weapon is a camera)

Mission: The adventure for the player character protagonist, Felix, begins at her holiday cottage where she is ready to explore the walking trails of the Forests of FaeryNova… She is alerted on arrival that things are not as expected, with some of the walking trails closed by a cult of scientists, rumours heard in the local village she passes through on the way – that the enemy scientists are capturing the local, elusive faeries for the purpose of secret experiments. As the player, you are sent a plea for help from the faeries, communicated through their magic, to find a way to prove their existence and close down their evil hunters. You are led to items which will enable success in this mission – a special camera for taking faery photos to compile the evidence needed to save them, equipped with a lumina-daze flash which stuns the enemies before they can deal damage with their tazers!

Fluttering Souls is based on the tale of The White Butterfly. An old Japanese story where the souls of loved ones take on the form of white butterflies to visit those who remain in the living world.

It is a 2 player strategy, set collection micro game; made up of 3 – 5 rounds. In each round, players take turns collecting butterflies which are worth victory points, either in a set or by themselves. The player that collects the most victory points at the end of a round is awarded a White Butterfly Token; a visit from a lost loved one. The first player to collect 3 White Butterfly Tokens is the winner.

Created at the Nordic Game Jam 2018 “Bright” is a first time creation by a Danish cross Perth collective going by the name Illuminoodle. The game is about painting colour back into a darkened world to overcome its challenges. It is a PC, Puzzle side scroller game.

6. Sea Wars by Graham Lockhart

Sea Wars is a table top game utilising innovative card and miniature game mechanics. Most of the rules are designed into the games components and play aides to reduce the size of the rulebook and help facilitate ease of play and accessibility to players with little or no subject knowledge.

Blocky Roll challenges you to navigate our hero Blocky to the end of the level by – wait for it – rolling! Blocky is presented with seemingly simple puzzles that become increasingly devious and difficult to master.

A frantic-paced FPS of paintball guns and sentient polygons in a colourful cartoony world – a game all ages can enjoy.

12. Baron: Fur’s Going to Fly by Dogmelon

The dawn of aviation. A battle for control of the skies. Fur is going to fly!

A multiplayer game of aerial combat, set in the First World War. The pilots are animals. The weapons may or may not be historically accurate. Choose your aviator and challenge your friends. It’s going to get wild.
